What to Think, What to Desire, What to Do
17/05/2013 - 08/09/2013
CaixaForum Barcelona
The exhibition series ‘What to Think, What to Desire, What to Do', curated by Rosa Martínez, got under way in November 2012 and is now drawing to a close with the third and final show, which presents significant works from the "la Caixa" Foundation Contemporary Art Collection.
‘What to Do' focuses on perspectives for action, on the horizons that should guide individual transformations and changes in society, art and politics. The exhibition explores issues related to justice, control, power, repression, reparation and reconciliation through works by Janine Antoni, Carlos Garaicoa, Joan Miró, Pedro Mora, Bruce Naumann, Àngels Ribé, Doris Salcedo, Valeska Soares, Javier Téllez and Gillian Wearing, some of which have never before been shown in Barcelona.
